Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   In one of the more unbelievable sports stories you'll ever hear, the Royals were popping champagne bottles in New York just like they did after beating the Mets in the World Series 11 years ago. Why?  Light hitting utility man Tyler Tolbert tied a Major League hitting record for the ages that's less likely to have happened than getting struck by lighting... twice!
   President Trump says he's done with the Iran ceasefire and he said it at NATO meetings in Turkey.  This is really, really gutsy as he's not really as safe there as he is at home.  For now, the ceasefire is over and Trump is done negotiating.  For now.
   ICE agents are increasingly active in one KCK neighborhood and they're happy to have you video recording their work.  We share a list of the most conservative colleges in America, one area school is the most conservative government school.
   In Sports, Messi now has 8 goals in this World Cup as Argentina makes a miraculous comeback against Egypt and will now play Saturday at Arrowhead.  Former KU star Darryn Peterson is killing it in NBA summer play as he's pretty healthy now.  And we've learned that in World Cup cities like KC... it's all about the singles dating scene.  You have to hear this.

   At least we don't have to knit pick reasons why Team USA fell to Belgium in the World Cup because it was all the reasons.  The United States was slow, unorganized and back on their heels.  It was ugly, ugly, ugly falling 4-1 in Seattle.  And if we're being fair, it's not likely men's soccer in this country will be elite any time soon.
   Something really bad is going on with Senator Mitch McConnell who is reportedly being kept alive by a machine at a hospital in DC.  His wife is reportedly in China.  And a GOP rep from Kentucky is blasting the Senate over the Save America Act.  And almost nobody is reporting on this.  It smells more than fishy as nobody wants to keep a loved one alive on a machine for weeks.
   Pastor Adam Hamilton has set a cash record for fundraising, no surprise there.  Getting other people's money is his greatest skill.
   Jackson County property taxes are coming down.  A new survey shows that audio only podcasts are the most trusted and popular podcasts.
    The Hunt family has multiple massive projects underway in Olathe.   Trav and Tay wedding critics are everywhere and it all just needs to fade.  I"m ready for training camp in two weeks!
   The Royals win big and their shortstop goes 5 for 5 and it wasn't Bobby Witt Jr.
    And our Final Final points out a US Senator wearing Mexico soccer gear.   Ugh. 

   Flo will go.  That's the word from FIFA after President Trump called the head of the soccer organization with a plea to review the bogus call made in the USA's game against Bosnia.  Now, Flo Balogun will have his one game suspension delayed for a year.  Can anyone say, "Golden Age?"  We preview Monday night's match against Belgium.
   The America 250 celebration in DC started, then delayed, then delivered even more well past midnight.  America was shining bright all weekend long.
    The airport in Florida near President Trump's house is officially renamed after Trump this week.   The wedding of the year was officiated by Happy Gilmore as Andy Reid gives the deets on how it all went down.   Patrick Mahomes setting off fireworks at his house had Chiefs fans on social media absolutely freaking out.   A three time winner on the PGA Tour breaks down in tears, Pope Leo got a new signed jersey and Joey Chestnut is just flat out the best ever.

   The United States the most entertaining soccer game I can ever remember seeing with a 2-0 win over Bosnia Wednesday night.  They looked like the better team and played lock the better team until America's best player got a red card and the USA had to play the rest of the night shorthanded, down one player.  To say this match was dramatic and wild is an understatement.  We have all the details and explore whether we can get Flo Balogun back for the next match.
   It was just another great moment of this America 250 week.  President Trump flew on the new Air Force One to North Dakota to see the Teddy Roosevelt library and museum.  The motorcade was led by Roughriders on horseback.  God Bless America.
   More communists are winning primaries, the latest a broke 29 year old barista that got fired for bashing her employer for not supporting Palestinian terror attacks on Jews.  Wait until you hear the demographic break down of communist voters in America.
   We have a wonderful conversation about Racin' Boys Co-Founder Scott Traylor with his best friend and long time business and broadcast partner Kirk Elliott.  It's all about the good times.
   And in our Final Final we say goodbye to the German social media sensation that took America by storm.

   The Supreme Court has just initiated the first advertising campaign in the history of the world for foreigners to take over another country.  "We are open for business" is the message the court sent to billions around the world... come have your very own American citizen by visiting our great land.  Stephen Miller has some thoughts.
   This puts the lazy GOP House and Senate on the clock to do something about it.  I've got a better chance of winning Powerball this weekend.
   Malls are making a comeback being reimagined as gathering places for more than just shoppers.  Politico writes a piece on how uncomfortable Dems are that the World Cup is happening in America with such great success.  They wanted to blame Trump for failure.
   Bikers take aim at the Royals plan for a new ballpark.   The Chiefs release new information about their stadium.
   EA Sports college football video game player rankings are out.  Mizzou has the highest rated player among our top three schools.  K-State as the best quarterback.
   And in our Final Final.... we recognize the best "claw machine" in history where you can win an awesome prize for just .25 cents.

   It seemed unthinkable I'd be staying up late to watch the end of a World Cup match between Morocco and the Netherlands but holy smokes when these things go to a penalty kick shootout, there's nothing like it.  Exhausted, cramping players gasping for air with one do or die shot at the goal and NO TIES!  We got a pair of these Monday and they were incredible.
   The USA plays Wednesday night against Bosnia and our very own secret weapon is sort of a scam and shouldn't be an American.  This is a really fun story.
   An engineering company has applied for re-zoning on behalf of the Royals and their new ballpark district.  Wait until you hear this.
  The Supreme Court pretty much tells Congress to pass a law about mail in ballots.  Chris Stigall and Nathan Willett are firing shots at each other as they run for Congress.
   And I remember race car driver and broadcaster Scott Traylor who was a longtime colleague on radio.
  In our Final Final, Tay Tay gets boo'd even as trucks are unloading the goods at Madison Square Garden for what appears to be her huge wedding party.

 Three months ago, nobody knew the name and folks were dismissing another outsider with deep pockets as a guy on a vanity run for governor.  Then, in Iowa, the Trump endorsed candidate lost to the CEO candidate.  Same in Georgia.  And Oklahoma is headed that way.  Suddenly, Philip Sarnecki in Kansas had a lane and momentum and maybe, just maybe, we conservatives like the idea of Trump more than a Trump endorsement.  He's got huge media buys and now we all know the name. 
   In a comfortable conversation, the man who built a financial services company and owns a boat load of quick change oil properties around the country says he can do it all as the CEO of Kansas.  This is a fascinating race that any conservative in any state will want to keep an eye on.
 

   The SAVE America Act is now on everyone's mind and it's getting worse for Senate leader John Thune.  Thursday in South Dakota, Thune's home state, he hosted a ticketed event for the state's GOP Fundraising.  Conservative activist Scott Presler, the man who worked tirelessly to fix Pennsylvania for President Trump, was denied entrance.  Presler even had a ticket.  You gotta hear the lengths Thune and his cronies went to in order to keep Presler from pressing the leader about the SAVE America Act.  They didn't treat Charlie Kirk this way!
   One conservative in the House of Representatives says she has a caucus that will shut the House down for good until the senate passes SAVE America.  Let's go!
   Team USA falls in a match that didn't matter, Netherlands fans had a big day in Kansas City but don't listen to the soccer boy hype that this was the greatest sports day in KC history and gay hating Iran and Egypt play Friday night in Seattle where they are having Pride Night.  Yes, please.  Dems, pick your side.  Jew hating Muslims or gays?  You can't have both.
   I pitch a new theory for a rule in MLB for more dramatic game finishes and we ask who will be a bigger star in KC... Jac Caglianone or Carter Jensen?

   Authorities have finally found the crazy dude that shot up a bunch of cars on I-70 the first night of the World Cup in KC.  He's dead and apparantly was dead in a house they previously combed over.  But it gets worse.  It seems at least one police department wasn't interested in looking for him BEFORE the shootings as they were too busy working World Cup events.
  Senator John Thune has ordered a 19 day vacation for the US Senate, right after Trump went too see them on Capitol Hill imploring them to pass the SAVE America Act.  This is so embarrassing.
   The Netherlands fans are taking over KC Thursday and they seem nice enough.  But let's remember they are not American.... I have the deets on one reason why.
   Saturday night's game at Arrowhead is shaping up to be a match where Austria and Algeria both want to lose so they can face an easier opponent in the knockout round.   A coach with the New England Patriots is marrying a reporter that covers the team and a popular fast food item from years and years ago is back for a limited time.

The NFL sent a letter to gambling quarterback Brendan Sorsby letting him know there would be no NFL Supplemental Draft this year and they wished him the best for his future.  It may be the first time anybody has stood up to the talented player and it's likely the best thing for him.  There was no way the NFL wanted this off season saga.  Good for them.
   Meanwhile, the NCAA votes to change the rules of eligility and it's exactly the model President Trump put in an Executive Order on April 7.
   A star tight end not named Kelce is all up the kitchen of NFL owners who seem to have enough money for grass fields for FIFA but not for NFL players.  We'll tell you who he is.
   Is it the first policy difference between VP Vance and Secretary Rubio as they are likely to both want to be America's next president?  JD is handling the Iran negotiation and according to a report, that's how Marco wants it.  You want to hear this.
   US manufacturing is at a five year high, the DOJ charges 455 scammers that have been stealing healthcare money from the government.  And in our Final Final, Space X has fallen back to earth.
